In Ference v. Roman Catholic Diocese of Greensburg, (WD PA, Jan. 18, 2022), a Pennsylvania federal magistrate judge recommended denying a motion to dismiss filed by the Catholic Diocese in a Title VII sex-discrimination lawsuit by a Lutheran 6th-grade teacher in a Catholic school who was fired shortly after being hired when the school discovered that he was in a same-sex marriage.
The Diocese had raised defenses based on Title VII's exemption for religious discrimination, the church autonomy doctrine, the ministerial exception and RFRA.

>> Lutheran 6th-grade teacher... in a same-sex marriage
ELCA Lutheran, no doubt. (ELCA = “Everything Luther Cautioned Against”.)
No, an ELCA school, if there are any, wouldn’t care less about a gay teacher, in fact they’d be glad to have one for diversity credit. This has to be an LCMS school. The Missouri Synod takes this stuff seriously.
After reading more closely I see it was a lutheran teacher in a Catholic school. So you’re right it was an elca lutheran person no doubt.
“He was in a same-sex” prison and attracted to 12 year olds in sixth grade. The teacher is a huge failure at ethics and life.
Yep
